Hi Imran
Thanks for reply.?
Yes I am aware that the N4400 is not without some flaws. I got the impression this particular issue wasn't universal and the 'fudged' solution is to to not over-tighten the knob locking/securing the guide assembly..
I'm sure the N4400 is an adequate saw just wondering if the ?750 cheaper S45N (admittedly 2nd hand) is an equal or even superior alternative..?
